Abstract
Oceanic frontal activity in the western Alboran Sea of
the Mediterranean Sea was investigated to evaluate spatial
and temporal variability. Subsurface features were compared
with DMSP sensed sea surface temperature to estimate the
feasibility of determining frontal location from DMSP
photography. Low frequency sound propagation across the
front was modeled to evaluate the effect of the frontal
system on propagation loss.
